Arrival and Departure by James Schwartz

Excerpt:Here in Michigan we are pioneers,Detroit daughters of a revolution.

Small town streets are still named,For Lafayette.

The great blizzard of '78 is discussed,As though yesterday.

Today the Great Lakes froze,And Hell.

The polar vortex leaving behind,Tomorrow's pioneers.
